A great selection of badges, very happy to see them, thanks for posting them.

Mike:

I have 14 1914 makers, of which I have 13, as follows (I've left out the unmarked ones, but I am assuming they may be Gaunt??)

Vaughtons Ltd
Hardcourts
DG Collins
WJ Dingley
Firmin & Sons Ltd
WO Lewis
JA Reseal
Bliss Bros
Arthur Fenwick Ltd
JW Tiptaft & Son
Smith & Wright
HB Sale Ltd
PH Manison
and TLM Ltd (Thomas L Mott) which I do not have.

I have also read somewhere Fattorini, WT Carroll and Mappin & Webb made them, but I have yet to see any examples, so they are a maybe.

Cheers, Tim

Hi Tim

Thanks for your message and in your own time for an email. I'll see what I have in the 1914 section. It is interesting that more than a few are "anonymous" efforts. Maybe that "backstreet" production that I hinted at?
